Mildewed and gray the marble stairs	A
Rise from their balustraded urns	A
To where a chiseled satyr glares	A
From a luxuriant bed of ferns	A
	-
A pebbled walk that labyrinths	A
'Twixt parallels of verdant box	A
To where broad based on grotesque plinths	A
'Mid cushions of moss padded rocks	A
	-
Rises a ruined pleasure house	A
Of shattered column broken dome	B
Where reveling in thick carouse	A
The buoyant ivy makes its home	B
	-
And here from bank and there from bed	C
Down the mad rillet's jubilant lymph	D
The lavish violet's odors shed	C
In breathings of a fountain nymph	D
	-
And where in lichened hoariness	A
The broken marble dial plate	E
Basks in the Summer's sultriness	A
Rich houri roses palpitate	E
	-
Voluptuous languid with perfumes	A
As were the beauties that of old	F
In damask satins jeweled plumes	A
With powdered gallants here that strolled	F
	-
When slender rapiers proud with gems	A
Sneered at the sun their haughty hues	A
And Touchstone wit and apothegms	A
Laughed down the long cool avenues	A
	-
Two pleated bowers of woodbine pave	G
'Neath all their heaviness of musk	H
Two fountains of pellucid wave	G
With sunlight tessellated dusk	H
	-
Beholding these I seem to feel	I
An exodus of earthly sight	J
An influx of ecstatic weal	I
Poured thro' my eyes in jets of light	J
	-
And so I see the fountains twain	K
Of hate and love in Arden there	L
The time of regal Charlemagne	K
Of Roland and of Oliver	M
	-
Rinaldo of Montalban's towers	A
Sleeps by the spring of hate above	N
Bows spilling all his face with flowers	A
Angelica who quaffed of love	N
